I’m only a 2nd year in IB with a PE offer for this summer but this sounds like a bad idea. Unless the first offer is from a no name firm in a small city, and even then, the odds are people from the two firms know each other. PE is a tiny industry from my limited experience. What are the fund size differences?

 

Agree with above, would not do this unless it's major differences (LMM PE in T3 city -> UMM/MF in NYC)

Reneging is one thing in college when you kind of get a pass for doing stupid things, it's not really okay to renege in a very small industry when you have experience and should know better. There was no reason to keep recruiting once you had the first offer...

 

advisable if reneging on a MM tech-exclusive fund on the West Coast for an East Coast MF? what's the likelihood of repercussion given the (geographic, commercial) distance? both are for a Summer 2024 start. how far in advance would it be optimal to renege?
